The popular Dassai “50” was replaced by Dassai “45” in 2019 by polishing the rice a bit more. And even though it is the most affordable of their lineup, it belongs to the highest premium sake category with no brewer's alcohol added.
Delicate, fruity & aromatic. This premium saké is semi-dry with a suble sweetness and creamy mouthfeel. It is easy to drink and extremely popular among both aficionados and those new to saké.
The "45" in its name refers to the rice polishing ratio, which means that the rice used in making this sake has been polished down to 45% of its original size. Clean and Crisp, Smooth and Well-Balanced: One of the hallmarks of Dassai 45 is its smooth and well-balanced taste. Love its harmony between sweetness, acidity, and umami, which makes it enjoyable on its own or as a complement to various dishes.

Mr Sakurai envisioned creating the world's finest sake, not just to survive but to redefine the industry's standards. He turned Dassai into a single varietal of sake rice: the Yamada Nishiki rice. This rice, known for its exceptional starch content and its ability to absorb water, became the heart of Dassai's sake. Mr Sakurai took it a step further by milling down the rice to only 23% of its original size, an unprecedented move that showcased the brand's dedication to purity and excellence. Here came their flagship product, Dassai 23.
